If rECI Al. TELEQ&UI TO TUB DISPATCH. )
Huxtoton. "VT. Va., Feb. 3. A
storm is brewing in the '"second city" of
"West Virginia. The first blow was struck
at the last meeting of the Board of Trade in
resolution declaring all the streets and
alleys W'thin tne limits open to the public,
ami requiring lot owners to pave the side
walks adjacent to their property.
In 1S71 the Central Land Company was
granted a 20-jears charter. The headquar
ters of the company were in Kew York, and
C. P. Huntington and his immediate friends
owned enough ot the stock to control its
policy, and practically Mr. Huntington is
the Central Land Company. After Mr.
Huntington had swallowed up all the de
sirable lanu in the town ot Huntraeton he
Cricioiifclj allow ed his richt band, the land
rompanj."to Intercede with his lett hand, the
Chcapeake and Ohio Railroad, to locate Its
ar shop here. Mr. Huntington, the railway
magnate, hearkened to Mr. Hnntincton, the
in J rnntc, and graciously accepted the lat
jr' tlonated site. Mr. Huntington was also
the cont'olllug factor in the Ensicn Car Manu
facturing Compan, located here.
1 he corporation limits were extended to iu
c'rnle tne lauds of the Central Land Company,
and n o'dinaucc passed permitting their prop
erty to bear farm taxation until each square
at broken by the sale of a lot. As last as the
tquires were broken they were subjected to lot
valuation on the assessor's books Nearly one
halt of the land inclosed within the town limits
is the property of the Central Land Company,
and lies in yet unbroken meadows. This nrop
erty is, and has been, rapidly sold to carshop
employes at an enormous profit.
Ihe btate Legi-lature some time ago passed
a bill prohibiting alien corporations from own
ing more than fire acres of land within the
corporate limits of any citv. The company's
chatter exnlrcs thisjear. Two years ago the
land company had a receiver appointed to wind

CAS SEEVICE IN HOI WATER.
They Find It Difficult to Collect Demurrage
Charges in Akron.
Tf FECIAL TELEGUAM TO TUJt DXSrjLTCH.1
AKHON, O., Feb. 3. A war seems imminent
between the railroads entering this city and
the manufacturers over the refusal of the lat
ter to pay the railroad companies' demurrage
cliarccs for the holding of freight cars on
twitches. The trouble first arose oer the re
fusal of the J. I". Seiberlmg Company and the
Akron fctreet Hallway Company to pay any
charges. An order was then issued by Mr.
Simmons, manager of the Cleveland Car
feervice Compan, that no cars assigned to the
street railway compauj over the line of the
Vallcj road should be placed on the siding ad
jacent to their power house. This was fol
lowed b an order of the C, A. C. road,
through the managers of the car service, that
no freight consigned to the Linuire Mower and
Reaper Works should be placed on the switch
leadiug to the factor until demurrage charges
as aked shall have been paid.
In the first instance a mandatory order was
issued compelling the Valley Company to de
liver coal on the power house switch pending
the flnil decs. on of the case. In the matter of
the J. i. buuerling Company a petition was
tiled asking the railroad company to be com
pelled to deliver cars on the switch, claiming it
te be deleterious to their business if not done.
A decision in the hearing is expected at any
time now. The Cleveland Car berrice Com-
Iiany, tlirongb whom the demurrage charges
iae been asked, was formed last sprme and
included Akron, Canton. Masstllon, Alliance
and other neighboring cities.
SOW FOB A STBIKE.
Mine Operators and Their Employes' Rep
resentatives fail to Agree.
rsrlCIil.TSI.r.GKJLlCTO TB DISPATCH.'
fecoTTDALE. Feb. a Trouble is now immi
nent in the coke regions. The coke operators
and miners resumed their conference at 1 p. M.
to-day. The miners said they would agree to
work at the rates ns embodied in the present
agreement until March 1, if the operators
would, in the meantime, begin negotiations for
the loimation of a satisfactory labor contract
for the ensuing year. This proposition met
with disapprobation by tho operators except
cue, namely, K. L. Mirtin, of Fairchance.
The miners also proposed a compromise set
tleireat on a ba'ls to be selected irom the pres
ent scale, and II) o agreement submitted to the
oporators a month ago, which asked fur an in.
create ot over l'l per cent. Ibe miners want
for theertulng .rarS107for mining, 65 cents
for drawing coke, tli discontinuance of the
non-union employe-, the eight hour system and
the erctiun of weigh scales on coal tipples.
The operatota have peremptorily declined to
consider the last two demands. The miners
declined the operators proposition for a 10-ccnt
reduction, and slid work would be suspended
avail plants in the region on February 1U, when
the present scale terminates. The conference
then adjourned.
Strike is the talk everywhere to-night. Some
argue that it will not be a strike, but merely a
suspension of work.

ISrECIA.. TEI.KCBAM TO TOE DISPATC1M
fcCBASTON", Feb. 3. General Master Work
man Powaerly is home from an extended tour
through the coantry, lasting fnllv three months.
For the first time in his lifo be is this week
serving as a juror in the Criminal Court. He
declined to ask to be excused, saying it was his
duty as i, utizn to servo in this capacity if
summoned. Concerning Knights of Labor
matters, Mr Powderly said there was little new
to relate. The order in this State is pushing
fuur measure a constitutional com euuon, a
revision of the mine laws, the abolition of
FinkcrtoniMu and the employers' liabilit) act.
Mr. Powderly smilingly complained of the
distorted reports of a speech lie made at
Ocalla. He vas reported as being opposed to
labor-saving machinery. He bad never by a
single were! p.kced himself in such a position.
Kcternngto the coming contention ot organ
ized labor, wnicb will also contain a Farmers'
Alliance delegation, Mr. Towderly criticized
the reports which are spreading that it is to be
j. third part meeting.
J-o far as 1 ai see, the question of a third
party will not be raised, 'he said, "We will
simply agree upon a platform which will be
presented to all the parties If none ot them
adopt it, then there w ill be another convention,
and proLably the will ot the people will be a
third party."

side his attorney, he appeared to be the coolest
of any of the throng that packed the court
room to suffocation. ,
As predicted in The Dispatch some weeks
ago, his connsel are working the insanity
aedgefor all it is worth. So clever has ho
played bis cards that one of the leading physi

so testified on the stand, that the youne des
perado was insane. The trial Is the cause of
great excitement. People from all over the
county are coming to the county seat to hear
the case, as It is supposed the defendant is one
of the leaders in a gane that has terrorized tho
farmers of Bedford township for several years.
A CASE OF SOMNAMBULISM,
A Stranger Disrobes Himself In a Depot
and Takes a Walk.
r Special telegeaji to the dispatch. 1
Braddock, Feb. S. A man, evidently a
stranger in Braddock, while in a partly intoxi
cated condition entered the Baltimore and
Ohio depot, sat down on one oT the benches
and went to sleep. After some time ho appar
ently awoke, and to the astonishment of the
persons in the room, proceeded to divest him
self of his clothing; folding each piece care
fully as it was taken off.
He then walked out of the building and
down the track a considerable distance. No
attempt was made to stop him, but he halted
suddenly, as if waking from a sleep, returned
hurriedly to the depot and got into his clothing
again as quickly as possible. The weather be
ing very cold had the effect of causing him to
shiver. He explained to some bystanders that
he was in the habit of walking in his sleep.

frauded by Many.
1SPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIgPATCn.1
Beaver Falls, Feb. S. On Saturday an
agent ot tbe Brldgewater Natural Gas Company
paid a visit to Van Port, and a short investiga
tion revealed a surprising Btate of affairs.
He found quite a number using the fuel in
double tbe number of fires they were paying
for, while others had tapped the mains and were
using the gas, of whom the company had no
knnwledce whatever. Many had bought
"mixers" in Pittsburg and attached them on
the lino without the company knowing it. The
agent gathered up all these extra "mixers" and
carried them off, whereupon there was a big
bowl made. It is probable that suits will be
entered by tbe company.
